coached deal honestly pushed treated
You're going to be coached to be a pro. You're going to be pushed to where you may not even know you have this level. That's a big deal with me. You're not always going to like it, but you're going to be treated honestly and you're going to be treated fairly.
anybody came couple develop league moves takes
I don't think there's anybody in the league that I see that moves better without the ball. Usually it takes a couple years to develop that - Martin, he kind of came with that.
guys step team trust white
In practice, we haven't really had those guys who are on our white team step up like they should for us to trust them in the game.
ball beat central looked played pull respect state
I've got a lot of respect for them. They got beat all day by Toledo, by 30. They looked bad. And then they played Central Michigan, and they pull out a win. In the Ball State game, they played great.
anyone good
That's a very good team. They're as good as anyone around. They got more shots, got on the glass, and were just better.
good indiana kids recruit state ties
The more Indiana ties you can get, the better. You've got to recruit Indiana and there's enough good young kids in the state that you've got to recruit it hard.
basketball far mature playing team
At the end of the day, they were a far more mature team playing basketball than we were.
ability defend determined easy game inability run second start stay
The run that really determined the game was to start the second half. Their easy baskets off turnovers and our inability to defend them. And then our ability to stay out of our way a lot of times.
free game heart late matt shows sitting steps throws
Matt shows you the heart he has by the free throws he makes late in the game after sitting on the bench. He steps up and he drills them.
five guys lost row
Our guys really battled. They're down, they've lost five in a row before this game, they're down 14 at half.
compete figure mentally needed physically
Physically I think we were there, but mentally we weren't where we needed to be at all to compete in this game. We need wins. We got to figure out what we want out of this season.
free shot sure throws
I'm not even sure we've shot a free throw. We haven't shot free throws in so long, I couldn't even tell you.
good kids people team
Toledo was good, very good. I thought our kids competed, but we made too many mistakes. That's what Toledo has been doing to people in this building. Sometimes you just have to give the other team credit. Toledo has been very good defensively of late.
against waste
We didn't waste a whole lot of possessions. Against Kent you can't waste possessions because they're so good.
